Magnus Carlsen puts 'forbidden jeans' up for auction
Norwegian chess grandmaster Magnus Carlsen auctioned off the jeans that led to his disqualification from a round in the World Rapid and Blitz Chess Championships due to a dress code violation. Despite initial frustration, Carlsen returned to the competition and humorously turned the incident into a charitable opportunity, donating the auction proceeds to the Big Brothers Big Sisters charity.
